I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 558 Beta-level Mutants

not to mention.

Isn't it an honor for those women to have their growth supported by these resources?

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that after each of those destructive raids his abilities would feel like he'd been given a large meal and then enter a cooling-off period, requiring a digestion process, Little Tom would love to go out and raid a prey every day.

A brief recollection reveals the visibly significant improvement in strength...

That abundant life force, flowing from the prey into one's own body, makes every organ and every cell feel as if they are soaking in a hot spring, experiencing a sense of rebirth...

An irrepressible longing arose in Little Tom's heart.

No one can resist that kind of visible improvement;

And no one can resist the wonderful experience of seeing their body become younger, a feeling akin to being reborn...

No one is more qualified to speak on this matter than he, who went from Old Tom to Little Tom.

Before coming to this city, there was no handsome young Tom in the world, only... a poor and destitute old Tom.

As the longing in his heart spread rapidly, Tom's legs seemed to have a mind of their own, and he couldn't help but walk towards the washroom on the side of the room.

Splash...

Just then, as Tom drew closer, the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom interrupted the longing in Tom's eyes and pulled him back from the impulse that was being controlled by desire.

"Calm down, Tom. This rare feast is best enjoyed slowly, isn't it?"

With constant self-suggestion, Tom's eyes, which had gradually become frantic under the control of desire, regained a trace of calm. As he walked to the bathroom door, Tom's face once again blossomed with that elegant and charming smile.

Before the big meal begins.

We mustn't let fear affect the taste of that lamb.

Just as Little Tom was telling himself this and was about to walk to the bathroom door to give that charming lamb a "surprise," a black, tubular object quickly approached the bathroom door made of frosted glass.

"Shit."

The black tubular object rapidly approaching the frosted glass of the bathroom instantly jolted Little Tom from his elation at the prospect of tasting his prey.

The moment Tom saw the black tube, his pupils contracted, the hairs on the back of his head stood on end, and he stumbled backward.

"Bang!"

The next moment, with a loud roar, the frosted glass in the bathroom shattered instantly, and glass shards, along with the roaring bullets, rained down on Little Tom.

The corridor in front of the washroom was straight and narrow, with no obstructions. Although Tom tried his best to dodge, he was still caught off guard and had several long cuts on his body from the flying glass shards. His left arm was even hit by a bullet with a hole the size of a billiard ball.

Even that face, which at first glance appeared to be just pretty but was full of charm, was now cut by flying glass.

Blood streamed down his cheeks, instantly giving his handsome face a more brutal and ferocious look.

Tom, his eyes bloodshot, glared angrily at the transformed figure behind the broken door, gritting his teeth as he said, "Damn it, who are you?"

The prey that was about to be caught turned into a hunter who almost killed him in the blink of an eye. This sudden change caused Tom to lose his composure.

Sarah, the blonde girl who had simply tied her loose blonde hair into a ponytail and suddenly had a lot of weapons and equipment on her hands and body, chuckled.

"you guess?"

After saying that, Sarah decisively pulled the trigger again on the exaggeratedly caliber, menacingly designed pistol in her hand.

boom!

The deafening roar rang out again.

However, this time.

The bullets that shot out did not hit the target, but only created a dent in the floor behind Tom.

Before Sarah could fire, Tom quickly slipped into the bedroom next door.

Almost the instant Tom slipped into the bedroom, a grenade was thrown from Sarah's hand and followed Tom into the bedroom.

boom!

With a loud bang, Tom's meticulously decorated apartment was blown to pieces by a grenade.

After the bombing, Sarah seemed not to be letting Tom off the hook, so she threw another bomb into the bedroom.

hum!

The deafening explosion swept in all directions, and even though Sarah had already put on special earplugs, she still felt dizzy and nauseous.

Despite her physical discomfort, Sarah, holding a pistol in each hand, rushed into Tom's bedroom.

He planned to rush into the bedroom and finish off his mission objective.

"Kill him!"

Sarah had just rushed into the bedroom and hadn't even had a chance to see the layout when a dark figure descended from the sky and tackled her to the ground.

The next instant.

The sharp fangs, carrying a stench, bit down hard on Sarah's vulnerable neck.

"Petrified!"

In the critical moment, Sarah let out a low shout, and a gray light quickly emanated from her body. As the gray light flashed, Sarah's body became as hard and rough as a stone.

"Click-clack..."

Due to the petrification process, Sarah's body became as hard as a real boulder. Even though the cheetah that had pinned her to the ground pounced and bit her neck, sending stone fragments flying, it still couldn't penetrate her neck.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, Sarah flicked her wrist and gently pulled the trigger. The Thunder Pistol in her hand flashed, and with a thunderous roar, the cheetah that was pressing down on Sarah was blasted away by the bullet fired from the Thunder Pistol.

Seeing the streak of blood falling from the sky, Tom, who had just gotten up from the ground, paled and exclaimed, "Nellie..."

Amid Tom's exclamation, the cheetah that had been blasted away by the bullet transformed into a long-haired beauty with tanned skin and a wild charm.

"I'm fine!"

With blood seeping from her lower abdomen, Nellie gazed at Tom with infatuation, shook her head slightly, took a deep breath, and leaped into the air, transforming once again into a lithe cheetah. She then stood in front of Tom, staring intently at Sarah, who had already stood up from the ground.

Seeing that Nellie had only suffered minor injuries and was otherwise unharmed, Tom breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then, looking at Sarah who was confronting Nellie, he said with a grim expression:

"A Beta-level mutant, you're here to kill me? That's... quite the grand scheme!"
